Large park with gardens, lakes, trails, picnic areas, museum, flowers and more. Popular attractions include Conservatory of Flowers, Japanese Tea Gardens, Stow Lake, Windmills etc.
If you are coming by car, please be careful about break-ins when you park. Don’t leave any valuables in the car.
The Fishing Pier at the Fort Baker offers Golden Gate Bridge views from below the bridge on north side and not as crowded as other vista points. In addition, Fort Baker has many historical buildings and trails to explore as well.
Popular vista point with free parking and rest area. Selfie spot with up-close views of the bridge and the skyline. It is mostly busy and may have to wait a while to get parking.
Bay cruise or boat tour is a must do activity if you are visiting San Francisco. You get to see the golden gate bridge from underneath and some trips also include historical Alcatraz island.
Good location to capture framed bay bridge, iconic cable car and the steep street in one picture. Around sunrise is the best time to go as the bay bridge is lighted up nicely by the sunlight.
Another lookout with nice views of the golden gate bridge
The battery west trail provides scenic views of the golden gate bridge along the trail ending. The golden gate overlook point, which is also the end of the trail, can also be reached by walking through the underpass located near the welcome center on east side. In addition, there a couple of parking lots on the west side on Lincoln Avenue and Merchant Road.
For best views walk closer to the bridge from the official overlook point.

Good photospot
Good location to capture framed bay bridge, iconic cable car and the steep street in one picture. Around sunrise is the best time to go as the bay bridge is lighted up nicely by the sunlight.
